We are amid everyone’s favorite part of the year, lacrosse season! The stores have been popping in the last few weeks with all the local players coming in for tune ups, adjustments, and getting fitted to take on 2025. We’ve seen lots of love for all different brands, but we have caught some consistent top seller’s week after week. Come take a look at what we think would be the ideal stick set up for each position this spring!
Midfield
For the do it all players, you will need to do it all set up! The workhorses, the grinders, and the between the line’s guys: come and get your hands on a Stallion 1k. Trusted by some of the top D1 schools with the top midfield units in the country; UNC and Princeton, this head will last you through the longevity of this season.

One of our favorite shafts to pair with this, the ECD Focus. Built on strength and lightweight, this is ideal for a midfielder. Allowing you to D guys up in between the lines and still offer that lightweight factor when taking time and rooms; this is a must grab this season! Offered in three color ways; silver, black, and gold; get your ideal set up right here at your local LU!
Defense
One of the newest heads added to the D guy’s arsenal, the ECD Delta. This has been a favorite for both the guys who play down low and those who take the wings and get involved in the neutral zone scrums. Its wide face shape allows it to get in passing lanes and pick off passes. Although wider, there is still a high flare that allows it to be highly effective when pushing transition off the clear.
Some consistent feedback from our managers has been about the String King Metal Pro 3! This thing has managed to stay hot for 5+ years. A simple and sleek look, the metal has everything a defenseman is looking for. Strength, lightweight, durability…check, check, and check! Lucky for you, we have this setup prebuilt for you here! Can’t wait to get your hands on it? Head down to your local LU, we’re fully stocked!
Attack
Think back to the early 2000’s…what head has remained a favorite for those guys tearing it up in the box and making noise at X? The Evo family! The Evo QX-O has proven to be a favorite for attackmen across the country. Its narrow face shape and mid pinch offers the ideal set up to both carry and release the ball. Feeder? Great. Shooter? Even better. This thing has you covered. Offered in multiple colorways, you can fully create the dream setup to dominate this spring!
As an attackman, you are taught to always have your eyes up; next play mentality. Expecting to make those quick feeds, you’ll want that lightweight feel for your shaft. Look no further than the Maverik Hyperlite. Developed with a more advanced/softer grip…. you will have optimized feel throughout all weather conditions. The lightweight advancement allows for quicker feeds/inside finishes. Want to be subtle but also stand out a little this year? Check out our snow camo handle, doesn’t get much cleaner than this!
FOGO
Who doesn’t love the Mark 2F? One of the longest tenured heads in the game, this head has everything any Fogo would look for. Endless stringing options, shortened throat, multiple screw holes to ensure durability; this head has it all. Flex? Got it. Stiff? Also got it. If you want to dominate the X this spring, come get your hands on a 2F while you still can….they are HOT and going fast!
Given the push/pull nature of the faceoff…you need durability, and you need strength. However, you don’t want to sacrifice that with weight as speed is the name of the game. Look no further than an STX Sc-Ti. Built on all these factors, this is meant to last the demanding factors the faceoff calls for. Keep it clean with a silver or black look or add some pop with the colored options we have to offer. Both online and in store, come get your hands on one of the hottest shafts in the game!
Goalie
The best players use the best gear, and that’s exactly what it takes when you’re commanding the crease. The Eclipse 3 is the third iteration of the Eclipse family STX offers. Each one being better than the last, this one stands alone for top goalie heads. Having a nice and wide face shape with strategic cutouts for hand placement, this has consistently been proven as the goalie favorite. Trusted by the best at the position, like Liam Entenmann, this head has what it takes for anyone looking to dominate between the pipes.
Why not pair the top head with the top shaft? The ECD Carbon 3 has been a top selling shaft since inception. Whether you prefer the 30” or 36”, we got you covered. Perfect flex : weight ratio, the Carbon offers everything you need. They can bear the brute of shots and offer you the lightweight factor to get your outlet passes in and out within seconds!
Every position and every player have their own niche. We find these setups to optimize performance at all the designated positions. Still unsure what you think you need? Head down to your local LU and ask our trusted staff for their opinion! They will be sure to have you properly equipped whether you are playing your first or last season!
